actually started the whole deal for barack obama back in 2008. >> wow. can i talk about corn? >> yes. >> thank you. go ahead. >> all right. the new report out this morning corn is already jumping on the markets because it was bullish on corn and some traders had been expecting bearish news. they've been selling off corn this week but the usda says stocks as of the beginning of september for the year are 98 # bushels. that is under a billion bushels, very low. 988 bushels. the street was expecting slightly more than 1.1 billion. that is a 12% drop from stocks a year ago with most of it from grain facilities not from the farms. corn supplies on the farm are only down slightly. perhaps as farmers are holding on to corn to meet contract commitments. soybeans, the market is mixed. it was a bearish report with ending stocks a little higher than expected at 169 million bushels. still, a 21% drop in a year. bullish wheat with stocks as of the beginning of september at a little over 2 billion bushels. only down slightly from a year ago but less than the street expected. we'll have to s

because this economy is enacting extreme austerity, and this debate is relevant whether it's obama or romney. is austerity actually denting growth, is it creating more problems than it solves. let me give you one example. we have a sales tax in this country that has been raised from 16% to 18% to 21%. that has created a slight inflation issue. now, pensions are inflation linked. and this country in november has to increase pension abouts by inflation. so by raising 2.5 billion euro v.a.t., it will cost them 3.5 billion euro misincreased pension costs. so you can see the conundrum. they're enacting enormous amounts of austerity, but that's denting an economy which is already in recession. its second since 2008. and things are getting worse. 25% unemployment, a million up sold homes. and we haven't even talked about the banking crisis and the autonomous region, some of which including catalonia are looking trying to get some form of assembly. it is a toxic mix. >> imagine that there will be pressure on markets as this they think unfolds. we're also counting down to the wire here of cour
